How Firefox prints
- • Firefox adds the page title, web address, page number and date by default.
- • Simplified reading view prints articles in a clean single column.
- • Windows fonts and web fonts print side by side.
What that means when you change a phone number
- • Letters you type that already appear in the printout, in the same font, are copied from its own letter shapes, so they print identically.
- • Digits are recovered like letters, so a changed number keeps the printed digit shapes and spacing.
- • After export, the recovered text can be selected, copied and searched, which the printout could not do.
What happens to the rest of the page
- • Numbers next to icons stay beside their icon; the row moves as a unit if the number gets longer.
- • Plus signs and brackets are set in the same font as the digits.
Questions people ask
+Will the phone icon move?
Only if the text in front of it gets wider. Icons in a contact row move along with their text.
+Why can't I select text in my Microsoft Print to PDF file?
The driver often draws every letter as a shape instead of writing text. MythosPDF reads those shapes and turns them back into real text before you edit.
+Is it better to reprint from Firefox?
If you still have the Firefox file and a lot to change, yes. For a quick fix to the PDF you already have, editing it is faster.
